The HUB specializes in new Dutch and European bicycles, vintage American and English cycles, bicycle attire and accessories, repairs, and rentals.

The HUB was founded by George Bliss in 1995, with the goal of creating a community center bound by the concept of conscientious transportation.

The HUB had several locations in the Village and SoHo before moving to in its West Village location at 71 Morton Street in 2006. In the spring of 2010, the HUB moved again to its current location at 139 Charles Street.

The shop is open daily from 10 a.m. to 8 p.m.
